  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION IN THE LECTURE ROOMS that lined the narrow, crowded streets of the "Latin quarter" of Paris, there evolved during the late twelfth and early thirteenth centuries an approach to learning that would dominate the intellectual world of northern Eu­ rope for the next three hundred years. This new method of thought, known to historians as scholasticism, held out the intoxicating possibility that, through reason and the powerful tool of Aristotelian logic, men could resolve the seeming con­ tradictions between faith and reason, Christian truth and Greek science, and attain insights into the nature of the world, of man, and of God. In these same years, as the teaching masters of Paris gained a corporate identity as the University ofParis, they formally adopted this new intellectual program as the basis oflearning and instruction. Subsequently, these Parisian methods became the model for dozens of universities founded in England, Spain, the Low Countries, and the Holy Roman Empire. As a result, scholasticism-with its veneration of Aristotle, cultivation oflogic, and enthusiasm for disputation and debate-became synonymous with northern European academic life for the remainder of the medieval era. Some two hundred years after the emergence of scholas­ ticism, another intellectual movement, known as Renaissance humanism, began to evolve in the rich and populous cities of northern Italy. Unlike the scholastics, the disciples of this new cultural movement had scant interest in Aristotelian thought, theological speculation, and sophisticated logical concepts. Spurred by a new appreciation of the classics, these Italian thinkers-in particular Petrarch (1304-1374)-warmed to the ix Introduction - Ciceronian ideal of the studia humanitatis, an approach to learn­ ing that stressed literary and moral rather than philosophical training.

  • Believing Persons, Personal Believings: the Neglected Center of the First Amendment
    SMITH.DOC 4/21/2003 4:31 PM BELIEVING PERSONS, PERSONAL BELIEVINGS: THE NEGLECTED CENTER OF THE FIRST AMENDMENT Steven D. Smith* In this article Professor Smith addresses how our conception of what it means to be a person influences First Amendment law. The article explains how the conception of the person as a believer eluci- dates the values that the First Amendment protects thereby providing a justification for why speech and expression are protected, and pro- viding guidance regarding the general direction the legal doctrine should take. After discussing the shortcomings of conceiving of the person as interest-bearer, autonomous agent, and citizen, the article proposes a conception of the person as believer, explaining how be- lieving is essential to personhood. The article concludes by exploring the implications of the believing person for First Amendment juris- prudences, specifically advocating the older “category” approach and casting doubt on the “neutrality” position that has come to dominate modern First Amendment jurisprudences regarding both speech and religion.

    Running head: THEOLOGY AND SOCIETY 1 The German Peasants’ War The Intersection of Theology and Society Zachary Tyree A Senior Thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation in the Honors Program Liberty University Spring 2014 THEOLOGY AND SOCIETY 2 Acceptance of Senior Honors Thesis This Senior Honors Thesis is accepted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation from the Honors Program of Liberty University. ______________________________ Christopher Smith, Ph.D. Thesis Chair ______________________________ Donna Donald, M.A. Committee Member ______________________________ Gaylen Leverett, Ph.D. Committee Member ______________________________ Brenda Ayres, Ph.D. Honors Director ______________________________ Date THEOLOGY AND SOCIETY 3 Abstract This paper examines the way that Reformation theology, particularly that espoused by Martin Luther, impacted German society. Sixteenth-century German society was very hierarchical in nature, with the Roman Catholic Church at the top, followed by the nobility, and finally the peasants, who suffered economic and political plight. Luther’s break from the Church in 1517 and the subsequent years brought tension to society. Developments extending from that break challenged the social hierarchy. One of the major social consequences of the Protestant Reformation, which was rooted in Luther’s theology, was the Peasants’ War. Luther criticized the peasants for the uprising, based on his understand of the Two Kingdoms theology. Luther’s theology, then, created some unintentional social tension, which his historical context may help to explain. THEOLOGY AND SOCIETY 4 The German Peasants’ War The Intersection of Theology and Society Introduction “We bid God the Lord to grant it to us to live and practice every Christian teaching,” concluded the “Twelve Articles of the Upper Swabian Peasants.” 1 The peasants in revolt against the German establishment of nobles and lords concluded their chief manifesto of the German Peasants’ War in 1525.

How Martin Luther transformed Marriage “With my wedding, I have made the angels laugh and the devils weep.” Marriages and families are facing increasing pressure because of the stress of modern life. Divorce rates among Christians are equal to those among secular peoples. Christian homes are being broken and disrupted at an alarming rate. Marriage rates in America are at historic lows. People are marrying later or simply not marrying or engaging in other alternative living arrangements.1 Christian teaching since the patristic period has postulated a tension between salvation and pleasure: most influential Christian thinkers have nurtured a gloomy suspicion that one cannot be attained without renouncing the other. Similarly the medieval church long remained suspicious, even hostile towards family ties. The church leaders suspected that conjugal affection and parental love often disguised sensual entanglements and worldly values. For this reason the theologians saw little value in family attachments. While Luther never completely rid himself of this tension, he began a movement within Christianity that made it possible to be good Christian and at the same time be happily married and have an enjoyable sex life.

  • The Protestant Reformation
    SESSION THREE JOHN CALVIN AND AND THE SWISS REFORMATION “It has been said that to omit Calvin from the history of Western Civilization ‘is to read history with one eye shut.’”1 S. M. HOUGHTON • The ‘Prince of Preachers,’ Charles Haddon Spurgeon asserted: Among all those who have been born of women, there has not risen a greater than John Calvin; no age before him ever produced his equal, and no age afterwards has seen his rival.2 • Spurgeon maintained: John Calvin propounded truth more clearly than any other man who ever breathed, knew more of Scripture, and explained it more clearly.3 CATHOLIC SON (1509-1523) BRILLIANT STUDENT (1523-1533) SUDDEN CONVERT (1533) • We have Calvin’s testimony in his preface to his Commentary on the Psalms (1557): 1 S.

  • The Age of Reform 1250-1550: an Intellectual and Religious History of Late Medieval and Reformation Europe
    The Age of Reform 1250-1550: An Intellectual and Religious History of Late Medieval and Reformation Europe. By Steven Ozment. New Haven and Lon­ don: Yale University Press, 1980. Pp. xii + 458, with illustrations. $25.00 (U.S.) It is an important moment when a scholar of Steven Ozment's stature publishes what appears to be a long-awaited synthesis of intellectual and religious history over a period as vast as that between 1250 and 1550. Scholars and teachers might expect a useful analysis of the links between medieval and Reformation thought, one combining thoughtful focus on the strands which held or unraveled as the world changed, with careful attention to the historical and religious context of the period, seen as a unity. Professor Ozment has long been known as a Reformation scholar who takes cognizance of the medieval period, particularly in his Mysticism and Dissent (1973). Thus, il is unfortunate that the present volume shows all the signs of being a too-hasty revision and assemblage of the lectures and previously published articles which Ozment notes in his Introduction, one which fails to satisfy at a number of points. A major problem for this reviewer is the book's lack of coherence. One would have hoped for the author to have identified a number of continua which would be traced from the thirteenth through the sixteenth centuries, to which reference could be made in order to link, for example, the scholastic theory of knowledge with humanist and reforming treatments of similar issues. These links, or their breakage, are frequently asserted, but seldom demonstrated.

  • Representations of Christ: Reforming the Imitatio Christi
    CHAPTER FOUR REPRESENTATIONS OF CHRIST: REFORMING THE IMITATIO CHRISTI The most prominent religious images in Reformation England were of Christ. Both late-medieval and early modern patterns of English piety set the second person of the Trinity at the centre of devotion. Since Catholics and Protestants represented Christ for very different reasons, such images offer fertile terrain in which to explore religious identity, including the continuities and conflicts between various religious beliefs. This chapter will map out how Protestants intended to represent Christ and how such images of Christ were employed. While images of Christ were often considered susceptible to idolatrous abuse, Christ, the most important figure in the Christian religion, was essential to many New Testament pictures. Images of Christ became fewer in number and a less frequent presence in devotional iconography in the sixteenth century, but Christ continued to be the most widely visualized Biblical figure, and new images appeared regularly until the end of the century. The devo- tional Christ of the late-medieval period was no longer present to the same degree, but Christ’s picture was employed for other equally valu- able purposes. Images of a more didactic and pragmatic intent appeared.1 Christ could be seen in both devotional and non-devotional contexts. He was a symbol of both salvation and moral instruction, and his image could be found in polemical cheap print and large humanist tomes. Many of the traditional motifs like the imitatio Christi and the Agnus Dei were used with new and invigorated meaning, suggesting that Protestants could not or would not wholly divorce themselves from traditional visual culture.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106-1346 ABSTRACT This study of the printer-writer Pamphilus Gengenbach is the first in English. It argues that his writings and his printed output of other authors can be treated as one body of work and develops a meaningful narrative of Gengenbach’s beliefs and intentions. It examines the content, language and form of his own writings, exploring common themes and ideas; and it examines the different audiences at whom Gengenbach was aiming and the messages he wanted to give them. The material he produced is seen as a measure of the ‘mood’ of the times, distinguished by its popular appeal: mostly short, written in the vernacular, and making extensive use of woodcut illustrations and verse.
